Cooling System For A Rolling Mill

Abstract: A method of cooling a material in a cooling system of a rolling mill using a cooling fluid, the method comprising the steps of: conveying, by a transportation mechanism, a length of material into the cooling system of a rolling mill; measuring, by a sensor, a speed of the length of material; comparing, by a control system, the measured speed to a setpoint speed, wherein the setpoint speed has a corresponding first flow rate of the cooling fluid; calculating, by the control system, a second flow rate of the cooling fluid based on the comparison, wherein the second flow rate is different from the first flow rate; and applying, to the material in the cooling system, the cooling fluid at the second flow rate.
